2020 Nissan Kicks

P 205 / 60 /16 1. Driving on the surface road in Atlanta, and without warning the sidewall of the Firestone FT 140 failed (see picture). 2. The 2020 Nissan Kicks only had 21,100 miles on the car at the time of the incident 3. There is no puncture in the tread and I have the tire in my possession and would be happy to may the tire available for inspection by an NHTSA representative. 4. I did NOT feel safe with the other 3 (inherently the same tire, as it was OEM) tires I had them replaced as a precaution.

I took my car in for service again for the 9th or more time due to the sonar alerts activating without reason. The AEB would alert and chime for no reason as well as the forward collision warning for no reason. The car also chimed consistently when backing up and stalled when nothing was behind me or in the vicinity for this alert to go on. This has been a constant issue with this car. I purchased it brand new on Feb 29, 2020 and I believe they sold me a LEMON. I took my car to Vacaville Nissan on Feb 3rd, 2022 to service advisor [XXX] who has been the Advisor throughout. [XXX] notified me FEB 3rd, 2022 that unfortunately when they ran diagnostic, their are issues with the car and he said there are over 12k RED NISSAN KICKS with the same issue. [XXX] told me, it is under Engineering review as their is nothing available yet to fix it. [XXX] said, they have done all they could and he would contact me in a Month when something will hopefully be available. This is unfair, I am driving a vehicle that is unsafe and unpredictable.

I bought my New 2020 in February and I have already had to have it serviced 7 or more times, due to electrical issues. The Automatic Electrical Braking system comes on, even though nothing is in front of me when I am driving, also, the Collision alert comes on as well during the same time, even though no cars are in front me to warrant a possible collision. I am very nervous driving my car. I dont know what else to do. Nissan has ran diagnostics and found the issues with sonar and other possibilities, they replaced the system and while it ran ok for a while, it is currently experiencing the same electrical issues. I have not been able to take it in again because I have a bad knee. I need help, I truly believe I was sold a Lemon!

The front collision sensor light comes on three to four times a week without any cars or objects in front of the car. The car speed is below 30 miles when it comes on too. This coincides with the Braking system to kick in and slow down the car. It is risky for us to drive when the car woul brake suddenly with no collision danger in front of us. We haven't taken the car to a dealer yet, but planning to if the issue persists for further inspection. The issue started 2 months or so ago. We have recorded a video of the issues that we can share if needed. Thanks!

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Forward Collision - Warning lights How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? - Vehicle slowed to a stop and would not move forward. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? No Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No

I am the owner of the vehicle but my daughter was the driver and I am making the complaint on her behalf but she can provide additional details. The vehicle began making a grinding sound at times that sounds similar to the anti-lock braking. Then on Oct 29 the vehicle locked down the brakes as she was pulling into the parking lot at work when there was not a collision imminent. She skidded into the curb damaging her front driver side wheel. We took the vehicle to the Dick Smith Nissan dealer in Lexington SC but they told us they couldn't reproduce the failure and recommended we bring it back if it happened again. We went to pick up the vehicle but before leaving with the car I drove the car around the parking lot and the forward collision light came on in under a minute. They immediately took the car back to service to read the code and asked if we could leave the vehicle with them. They called back after a day or two and said they have no repair and recommended we contact Nissan Consumer Affairs and start a case. We started a case on 11/5/2021 and the case number is 45086982.

*Engine or transmission failure - 27,165 current mileage *safety Risk - During moderate traffic conditions , vehicle was traveling approximtely 45 miles per hour, when it suddenly be gain to slow down. By the vehicle slowing in the manner that it did, could have caused the traffic following the vehicle to come to an abrupt stop resulting in a rear end collision. * The vehicle is currently at the Larry Miller Nissan for inspection and diagnostics * Check engine light illuminated seconds before the vehicle stalled there were no other indicators of distress such as burning smells or leaking fluids prior to the incident.

Car will shut off on its own when sitting at a red light will get a message showing the word MALFUNCTION, will restart after several attempts of pressing the start button. Has been taken to the dealer and reported and documented on my service receipt but they could not duplicate the problem and stated car was at specs. This has now happened 4 times in the last 2 weeks.

Sensor that states there has been a malfunction in the front braking system comes on randomly. The AEB system also stops the car at random times when nothing is in the road, good weather, sometimes going 75mph on the highway. Same thing has also happened driving in a parking garage or down a main road. I have also been in cruise control on the highway and this braking system comes on. I thought it was an isolated incident but it has happened at least 6 times. The date below only reflects the most recent incident.
